Jesus, 2 imap email accounts on standard fetch on a iPhone 3Gs is about 1 1/2 days and its stone cold flat. It goes on charge every night my phone
The problem with trying to work this out, is with an iPhone you'll end up using it a hell of a lot more than a normal phone, and as such, the battery life will suffer. I use my 3GS quite heavily and still get > 1 day battery life out of it. I have push email turned off though and just sync when I want to (not to a schedule) Other people at work moan about the battery life but they're all using push email/regular syncs.Originally Posted by Anthony-CloudAbove

14month old 3G with 1 push and 3 pull (at 15 min intervals) needs charging every day as its down to about 30%.
But then i do use the phone quite a bit.
Why would you pull-at-intervals ? Why not just pull when you actually want the email ?

Spot on. Also, I'd rather my mail headers were waiting for me straight away, regardless of my current signal, so I can see what's there and determine if there is anything which needs attention.

Ed-zactly (do you see what i did there)
I would have them all push if I could. I dont buy your argument your choosing to be disturbed by the sender. Sure my phone buzzes briefly, I know how to drive my phone so I have turned the sound off for emails, and that gives me a gentle nudge to say you have mail. i can then decide if i want to know what it is.
